Hi,
I want to install grub2 onto a 3Tb GPT usb disk in linux mint 14 (which
is based on ubuntu quantal) and have created the BIOS boot partition
before installing grub2. Here's the partition layout as seen by parted.
Disk /dev/sdc: 3001GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 4096B/4096B
Partition Table: gpt
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
2 1049kB 2097kB 1049kB BIOSBOOT bios_grub
1 210MB 2990GB 2990GB BKUP
Grub2 was then installed onto /dev/sdc (after mounting /dev/sdc1 on
/mnt/bkup) with
grub-install --target=i386-pc --recheck --boot-directory=/mnt/bkup/boot
--debug /dev/sdc
grub-mkconfig -o /mnt/bkup/boot/grub/grub.conf
All grub2 files were indeed created but during booting from the usb
disk, it dropped to a grub rescue shell saying "file not found". Running
the bootinfoscript (from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/) showed this message
"Grub2 (v1.99) is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdc and looks at sector
2048 of the same hard drive for core.img, but core.img can not be found
at this location."
Any help will be much appreciated.
Regards,
ST
